Chevrolet will be the first GM brand to debut Apple’s new “Eyes Free” feature for Siri, according to a new report. GM Authority claims that the feature—in which automakers include a button on the steering wheel for Siri access, removing the user’s need to look at or touch their phones—will initially debut on the Chevrolet Spark and Sonic. According to the report, GM media representatives couldn’t provide specific timing details, but said that the announcement should be coming in the next 12 months. GM was one of nine automobile manufacturers announced for the feature, alongside BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, Jaguar, Audi, Toyota, Chrysler, and Honda.
